With the Ooredoo Exchange service, customers can now directly transfer money via Ooredoo’s bigger and faster network to their loved ones’ bank accounts in countries including: Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Nepal, and the Philippines. Customers can access the service now through the secure and reliable USSD (*140#) service menu.
